Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Body Pain, Abdominal Pain, No Vomiting, Feeling Feverish. Help
My 30 year old son is way up a Alaska river working and has come ill, he has no insurance. He has been 5 days aching from head to toe which has gradually got worse and has knot in gut but isn't vomiting and doesn't feel like he has temp but doesn't have way to check. He hurt enough that he can't dress or move much. YYYY@YYYY
The description provided by you suggests a viral infection which shall take its own course. He should take acetaminophen (Tylenol) 4-6 hourly if he is feeling feverish. This shall reduce his fever and reduce his body ache. In case there is no improvement within the next 24-48 hours he should seek medical help as a clinical examination will provide more information and proper treatment.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing your son an early recovery.
Regards,
